<span style="background-color: #cccccc;">This little chipper moved into our new stone wall about five minutes after the first stones were placed. Since then he's snuck into our basement/garage to steal sunflower seeds out of the bag. Once he tried to escape Rumi, our kind-hearted cockapoo, by running up the downspout of our rain gutter. Too slippery! So he was stuck there with his tail end hanging out. Rumi just wished he'd come out and play!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
I’m trying my hand at chiaroscuro (key-are-oh-scu-ro) block printmaking. The
word is Italian—<i>chiaro</i> = light, <i>oscuro</i> = dark—and it’s used to describe
the dramatic effect of contrasting light and dark areas in artwork. Chiaroscuro
woodcuts originated in the 16<span style="font-size: 13.3333px;">th </span>Century and were comprised of three
or more tones—dark (black), light (white highlights), and middle (one or more
subtle colors to suggest shading). "Saving Nails" is my first attempt. It's the cover illustration for my husband Tom's third book of poetry due out this Fall with <a href="http://www.moonpiepress.com/">Moon Pie Press</a> of Westbrook, Maine. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;">I began with a photograph I took of a great horned owl at </span><a href="http://www.birdsacre.com/" style="text-align: start;">Birdsacre</a><span style="text-align: start;">, in Ellsworth, Maine. It's a wildlife sanc</span>tuary that provides habitats for birds and gives shelter to permanently injured birds unable to survive in the wild. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used two blocks of linoleum and two colors for my chiascuro owl print. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
First I carved the key block, which could stand alone as a black-and-white print. </div>

<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Then I carved white highlights out of the tone block and printed it in burnt sienna. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally I printed the black key block over the burnt sienna print. </div>

First I carved out all the white areas -- background, cabbage veins, fingernails. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then I printed flesh color.</div>

I decided I wanted the option of printing a colored background, so I had to carve a new block for that as I'd already carved out the background on the first block. I printed the background in four colors -- yellow, blue, green, and silver. </div>

Tom has decided he likes vegetable art for a change, so I carved this lino-block print for him for our 33rd wedding anniversary. Yes, he grew the twisted carrots! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'm fascinated with reduction prints because they're such brutal brain teasers. One block. Five colors. Multiple printings. Painstaking registery. I just wonder when I'll ever get the hang of it!</div>

I'm financing my shed studio with a small inheritance from my father, and I want to feel his presence in my new space. So I carved this linoleum block to print and hang there -- "Dr. Smith." I'm sure Dad will be pleased to see me working under his watchful and sardonic eyes.</div>

I've gone back to linoleum block print-making and am working with a group in Waldoboro, Maine, lead by Holly Berry. We meet on Mondays a couple times a month. It's great to be working together with other artists. I learn so much from all of them. And I have a lot to learn!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is my first renewed attempt at a reduction print. I carved the whole thing on one linoleum block and printed each color, one after the other -- first white, then pink, then green, then brown, finally black. As you can see by the pink halo around the kid's head, my registration was off. It got worse as I went along. Alas! There are no do-overs in reduction prints. It's a one-shot deal. But I was able to salvage the last block -- the black one, referred to as a key block. So I carved three more blocks -- one for the pink nose, one for the green background, and one for the brown spots -- and printed them in that order. This is what I ended up with, sans bubbles. </div>

I took a white-line woodblock printmaking workshop at Zea Mays Printmaking in Florence, MA, (http://www.zeamaysprintmaking.com/) last October with my woodblock printmaking guru Annie Bissett of Woodblock Dreams (www.woodblockdreams.blogspot.com). It was a two-day workshop, and I carved and printed the rooster the first day and the wave the second. I carved "Stafingers" at home and printed this image. Here in Brunswick, GA, I've printed another image of the starfish and am getting ready to print yet another one this afternoon. Each image is a monotype, because the colors are different each time.</div>
